Sports Mole looks at how Manchester City could line up against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Wednesday.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola could recall Nathan Ake and Ilkay Gundogan to his starting XI for Wednesday's Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest.

Ake was not involved in Saturday's 4-2 win over Crystal Palace due to a slight groin issue, but the Netherlands international is pushing to return to the middle of the defence here.

Gundogan is also likely to come into the starting side, with Bernardo Silva potentially being rested from the first whistle ahead of a busy run of matches.

Guardiola is likely to resist the temptation to shuffle his pack, although Julian Alvarez is also pushing to be involved from the first whistle on Wednesday night.

Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden are both likely to again support Erling Braut Haaland, who scored a second-half treble against Palace on Saturday afternoon.

Jack Grealish remains a doubt for the English champions due to a knee injury, while Kalvin Phillips (shoulder) and Luke Mbete-Tabu (head) will also need to be assessed ahead of kickoff.

Aymeric Laporte will again definitely be unavailable, though, due to a knee injury.

Sergio Gomez made his debut for the Citizens off the bench against Palace at the weekend, and the Spaniard is again set to be among the substitutes for the home side here.

Manchester City possible starting lineup: Ederson; Walker, Ake, Dias, Cancelo; Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne; Foden, Haaland, Mahrez
